Sensitive new-age guy

"Once my injury occurred, I really had to endure the pain of not just physical pain," Terrell Owens told ESPN's Michael Irvin. "It was emotional pain that came with it. I had to sit on the couch and watch interviews leading up to the Super Bowl - in the playoff games.

"Guys saying that they didn't need me to win. I'm a human being and I have feelings. Going through all that, just to hear some of those players say some of those things, it really hurt me. It was more hurtful than the pain I had to endure going through rehab for six or seven weeks."
